We're not seeing the problem in the parrot executable, just the pbc_to_exe executable, which makes me believe that the attached patch will fix the problem. We rearranged the linker flags for the parrot executable to avoid this a while back, so we ought to rearrange the linker flags for pbc_to_exe in the same way. Does this fix the problem for anyone still seeing it? -- c
